Newton's law of motion.
Is inertia the property of matter that makes it difficult to push a stopped car?
Inertia
Why is more difficult to push a stalled car from rest than to keep it in motion once it has started to run?
Inertia. When you first start to push the vehicle you need to overcome the inertis of the vehicle and provide it with Kinetic energy. Once the vehicle is moving, i.e has kinetic energy, then to keep a constant speed on a level surface you only need to push to replace the energy lost through friction, drag, and other energy losses
Why is it more difficult to push a stalled car from rest to keep it in motion once it has started to run?
Force = mass X acceleration. When you start pushing a stationary 'dead weight' you are making it go faster than it was or accelerating it. Once the car is moving at a steady speed, it is no longer being accelerated. The greater the mass or inertia of an object the more it will resist changes in its motion. (See Newton's Laws of Motion.)
Why would a car be going slower driving uphill?
Gravity is trying to push the car down the hill. It takes more power to overcome that push of gravity. Unless you give the car more gas it will slow down.
Does an LSD for a front axle make steering more difficult?
An LSD addition for a car will not make steering more difficult. Instead it improves it drastically as it adds more traction for the car.
How do car amps work?
Hi, Amps are electrical and the same in a car as elswhere. Amps are a quantity of electricity, voltage is the pressure pushing it and resistance is, as it sounds, how difficult it is to push it. Peace, crigby
